Summary

Olsen Park Elementary is a public elementary school in Amarillo, Texas, serving 384 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Amarillo Independent School District, which is ranked 411 out of 961 school districts in the state.

Olsen Park Elementary has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing above average compared to other Texas elementary schools. The school's academic performance is particularly strong, with students outperforming the district and state averages on STAAR assessments across multiple grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Olsen Park's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading and Mathematics were significantly higher than the district and state. The school also excels in STAAR Science, with a 5th-grade proficiency rate of 49.23%, compared to the district's 31.32% and the state's 29.57%.

While Olsen Park Elementary's overall performance is impressive, the analysis reveals some disparities in the academic achievement of different student subgroups. The school has shown strong performance for "Gifted and Talented" students, as well as "Female" and "White" students, but has struggled with the performance of "Hispanic" and "English Language Learner" students. This suggests the school may need to focus on addressing the specific needs of these underperforming subgroups. Interestingly, a comparison of nearby schools within the Amarillo Independent School District reveals significant variations in academic performance, which may be influenced by factors such as socioeconomic status and resource allocation.

Olsen is an excellent school with teachers that focus on the entire child not just the test scores. I have a child with ADHD and emotional issues. The teachers, staff, and principals have worked hard to help us turn her around and she is a different child. She loves learning and going to school. Close Quote
